gIDE Implant Foundation Program is intended for the beginner to intermediate implant clinician with a keen interest to understand the key principles and protocols in digital diagnostics, straight forward implant
surgery, extraction site management, single and multiple implant restorations, management of the edentulous jaw and prevention of implant complications.

A successful surgical and prosthetic result is directly related to proper planning and coordination among the implant team which can be either a single dental provider or a referral system. This program will highlight the digital component of CBCT with digital treatment planning and guided implant placement where indicated. New digital workflows will present the foundation to a predictable esthetic implant placement and restoration. Single, multiple and edentulous straight forward patient treatment with implants will be presented, with training in workshops. Restorative key protocols and the step by step in implant solutions will be presented, and reviewed in workshops.

This 6 day Implant Foundation program is optimal to prepare the implant clinician for simple to intermediate case treatment with predictable dental implants. The follow-on program to this for advanced training is the Master Clinician Program in Implant Dentistry.
